Summary
First Three is late getting back to Preservation, then its social calendar seems to be full all the time.
Murderbot's disappointed, but it's not like it can just ask Three to spend time with it. Besides, if Three wanted to hang out, it would say so. Right?
---
Or: 5 times Murderbot won't admit it likes spending time with Three, and 1 time it finally gets over itself and does.

Summary
Planets are dumb and dangerous, but at this point I'd argued— okay, more like complained— complargued so many times that nobody except ART was still willing to argufy back.
(That stands for argue-pacify, in case it isn't obvious. I think it's not obvious. And no, I hadn't forgiven ART yet for saying I needed pacifying.)
Anyway, I was currently complarguing from my seat in the back of the snow-capable bot-driven transport heading out to the middle of nowhere, so I had the sneaking suspicion I'd lost the fight.
Murderbot accompanies its humans on a winter vacation. Then the storm hits.

Summary
“SecUnit, what’s your favorite smell?” Double ugh. How the fuck was I supposed to answer this without being rude?
“I like it when there isn’t a smell.” There, that was a positive spin on my negativity, I guess. Maybe I should have lied, though. Everyone in the shuttle was frowning to some degree. Way to bring down the mood, Murderbot.
“You don’t like any smells?” Iris asked.

You are watching media with it when it suddenly begins clawing at its throat and rolls out of its favourite chair to writhe on the floor.
